Everyone was stunned, not least Arne Slot. But the Dutchman must have given them a right rollicking at the break because everything changed after it.
Darwin Nunez started the comeback before Mohamed Salah buried two penalties in style to secure the victory and send Liverpool 16 points clear of Arsenal.
